Most Anticipated Games of 2008: Killzone 2, GTA4 & More

GameDaily takes a look at the video games of 2008 that have gamers salivating:

"Grand Theft Auto IV
What Is It: The long-anticipated follow-up to one of the most popular gaming series of all time.

Why It's So Anticipated: Do you even NEED to ask? Grand Theft Auto set the standard for free-roaming gameplay, and part IV will continue the series' legacy. It'll feature photo-realistic visuals, bringing a virtual New York City to life. It'll also have a number of missions to complete, along with hundreds (maybe even thousands) of side missions. Living a life of crime won't be any sweeter than this...until Grand Theft Auto V comes along."

How WiiFit and Mario Kart Wii are there but Little Big Planet, Fable 2, Too Human, GT5 and Alan Wake are not is beyond me.

sonarus6400d ago

a lot of titles on there imo didnt deserve to make the cut and lots of titles missing out. GT5 and too human didnt show then we see army of two i mean common army of two isnt highly anticipated is it. Also wasnt RE5 pushed to 2k9

Irving6400d ago

I agree, but with LBP and GT5, it would've been kinda one sided list don't you think? They have to keep everyone happy :p

MK_Red6400d ago (Edited 6400d ago )

But LBP was one of the biggest winners of E3 and Game of the Show nom and winner by choice of many sites and mags. Also, it was the game that most non-PS3 fans liked at E3 and GDC.
God, I love this game. Can't wait.

Maldread6400d ago

Agreed, it should have included many other games, but i guess that`s how it always is with this lists, something to disagree with ;)

Both RE5 and FF13 will be great games, but will probably not be out until 2009 :( I suspect the same could/will happen to GT5, but we`ll see.

Little Big Planet should be in any best of 2008 list (it`s going to be a big planet indeed). Alan Wake (looks more creepy than Dead Space), and Resistance 2 (how good is this going to look and play) also, to mention a few more. Just think of all the secret games will should come up during "E3" too, guess the list have to be rewritten as we go along ;)

Relientk776399d ago

MK_Red I totally agree with u ... especially on Wii Fit .. its overrated... and will prolly get fantastic reviews.. and continue to get overrated

MK_Red6399d ago

Maldread, agree with your points but in Resistance 2's case, it's not officially confirmed yet but the list indeed has to be rewritten soon :)

Good one Relientk77 :)
"Wii Fit .. its overrated... and will prolly get fantastic reviews.. and continue to get overrated"
Hope it doesn't happen but sadly SPOnG did it and many other sites might follow :(

Maldread6399d ago

Hehe yeah you`re right about that, i just think it will be out next year ;)

Double post...

leon766400d ago

My wishlist (from this list): GTA4, MGS4, RE5, Fallout3, DMC4, GoW:CO, Soulcalibur4,Burnout Paradise, Killzone 2, FF XIII!!!
But I agree with MKRed: there are titles that are missing here.... And one of them, the most scandalous missing, is GT5!!!!!!!!!

MK_Red6400d ago

While I agree that GT5's absense is really stupid, I believe the most scandalous missing game is Little Big Planet (A Game of E3 worthy title and a game that every one even PS3 haters couldn't resist).

MK_Red6400d ago

My own list would be (Assuming MK8 comes in 2009):
1.Fallout 3
2.Killzone 2
3.Burnout Paradise
4.Ninja Gaiden 2
5.Little Big Planet
6.Brutal Legend
7.Prototype
8.Soul Calibur 4
9.FFXIII
10.MGS4

DrPirate6400d ago

At first I thought. Wait....Killzone 2?

But I figure alot of people want to know if the gameplay and framerate can match the graphics...

mighty_douche6400d ago

all the hands on are very promising, the only criticism was with the AI which is an easy fix with all the development time they have left. i cant remember anyone complaining about frame rates and i read a developer interviews where he said the game will run at a SOLID 30fps minimum @ 720p.

for me as a FPS fan this is the GAME of 08, i just hope it gets pulled off.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro49d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher57d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy57d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher57d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster57d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot57d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199257d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal57d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast57d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.

DMC2 ranked 2nd and also DmC ranked 3rd?
What a load of BS!

ABizzel157d ago

IMO

6. DMC2 6/10
5. DMC4 7.5/10 (Hated Nero, repeat bosses, Dante was the saving grace but only about half the game)
4. DmC 7.5/10 (solid overall, some great ideas, meh story, dialog sucked, and the director almost killed DMC)
3. DMC1 8.5/10 (all around solid)
2. DMC5 9/10 (carried by Dante & Nero gameplay, I didn’t like V’s, Nero’s better but still not a fan)
1. DCM3 10/10 (chef’s kiss)

Vits57d ago

Well, it worked.

This nothingburger of a opinion article got a lot of views and comments.

Pyrofire9557d ago

WHAT!? who in their right mind would put 2 near the top (not at the bottom) unironically?
I think all of them are worth playing in their own right honestly, except 2 unless you REALLY want to experience the whole series.

FinalFantasyFanatic57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

I honestly don't know what the author was smoking, personally I'd rank DMC3 as no.1, maybe DMC5 as second, DMC1 as third, DMC4 as fourth, and DMC as fifth and DMC2 last. such a bizarre list, mybe the author just has strange taste.

lellkay57d ago

DMC2 anywhere but last is crazy. Awful list overall.

BlaqMagiq157d ago

"Devil May Cry 2 isn’t trash. It’s just misunderstood by a fanbase that doesn’t like change."

This and putting DMC 2 number 2 is all I need to ignore this ranking. DMC2 is absolute trash and it's clear this person doesn't understand exactly why.

Flenter57d ago

For me: 3,1,5,4,2 and then .....Dmc

fsfsxii57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

Why is DmC last? Genuinely curious.

lellkay57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

Dmc is far superior to DMC2 come on

generic-user-name57d ago

"almost 20-year-old series"

It's 24 years old.
